When I turn against a company I don't go back. It isn't political or a boycott but I haven't been to KFC since the Oprah free chicken debacle. There are companies I have been boycotting for political reasons for less time but I don't think I'll be back for at least decades.

This is satirizing like 1% of boycotters while framing it as it was about boycotting as a whole. I dunno, this one's a huge miss for me.
Pretty sure the vast majority of people aren't giving money to thinks they say they're boycotting

You vastly overestimate the resolve of most consumers.
It's probably closer to 95% of people who give up on their boycott once they realize just how enmeshed company is in their market and how much extra effort it takes to avoid giving them any money.

I haven't faltered in my boycott of nestle. It's easy to avoid all of their products (and their sub brands), as there are plenty of alternatives.
But you're right. Literally impossible to destroy them with boycotting alone, since the many many businesses who do business with them. My solo boycott is barely making a dent.

Vegans manage to boycott the meat and dairy industries. Definitely possible!

I don't think I know a single person who was boycotting Chick-fil-A who stuck it out.
